Trading makes sense for people trying to hit mutliple events. <br /><br />Hope you did well over the weekend and can't wait to hear the play by play.Cut-N-Jumphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10355349642284506192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550515326326288148.post-1628982822180804072012-07-23T11:05:55.530-06:002012-07-23T11:05:55.530-06:00Desperately waiting for an update on how the weeke...Desperately waiting for an update on how the weekend went!!!!lauraatkinsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550515326326288148.post-90767450537179218562012-07-21T06:24:55.257-06:002012-07-21T06:24:55.257-06:00sounds like a busy weekend!

If you are entering multiple rodeos, you have to have your timing already planned out...which is what I did...I just accidentally switched the slack day. It all worked out...I got up in the Norwood rodeo in the Saturday perf.<br /><br />One thing I did not mention was trading. Trading with someone else is allowed...given both of you notify the main office. The pro girls do a lot of trading, to be able to make multiple rodeos. <br /><br />And I already carry packets for my horses in my pick-up. Registration papers, coggins, permanent brand inspections and whenever I need a health, it gets thrown in there too. <br /><br />You probably already realize that I haul my horses far more than the average person. I've got all the ordinary things figured out. How I draw up in the rodeos is not entirely in my control. :-)BrownEyed Cowgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03610547057139295854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550515326326288148.post-30376276849883922022012-07-20T14:22:29.891-06:002012-07-20T14:22:29.891-06:00One of the driving articles I found online had a r...One of the driving articles I found online had a really usefull tip in it. <br /><br />They kept a notebook with a calendar in it and a listing of all the events they planned on attending. They marked the calendar with the dates the entries opened and closed for each event they intended to enter. At the begining of the year she made copies of all of their membership cards, entry forms, registration papers, etc. and made 'packets' for each event. When time came to enter, just grab the packet of all of the paperwork, write the check and send it in. Copies of the check, noted the date when all sent and a back up copy if needed. <br /><br />Sure it takes a little time to sort it all out at the beginning, but it makes everything easier and simple as you go along the rest of the year. <br /><br />It was for driving, but I am sure it would work for shows, barrel racing and just about anything else. My notebook also has copies of the rules and various other things in it and is refered to as my 'Driving Bible' with a picture of Kat & I on the front. Wahoo!Cut-N-Jumphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10355349642284506192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550515326326288148.post-27394961224213133542012-07-20T14:17:48.317-06:002012-07-20T14:17:48.317-06:00Congrats on the good draws, and good luck!!!Congrats on the good draws, and good luck!!!SunnySDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07591623033468632399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550515326326288148.post-41276683797689761672012-07-20T10:25:15.615-06:002012-07-20T10:25:15.615-06:00Go gett'em girl!

Crazy!<br />I can't believe they don't do a better job at keeping the ground in better condition. At the Arab shows, they are constantly dragging and watering the show arenas. If they don't, people complain. I know that rodeo is different but I would think they would still be better at keeping the ground in good condition. Especially since it is dangerous when it's not kept good. Interesting. <br />Good luck this weekend and go WIN some money!!Paint Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05095673661149903754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550515326326288148.post-2254391642328867112012-07-19T20:40:38.492-06:002012-07-19T20:40:38.492-06:00Good luck!Good luck!GunDivahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02965363044411500380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550515326326288148.post-76484274041015696482012-07-19T15:49:25.171-06:002012-07-19T15:49:25.171-06:00Yep entering rodeos should be considered an art ;)...Yep entering rodeos should be considered an art ;) Listening to the girls that I know it seems like its even more difficult if you have traveling partners (more so when they're roughstock cowboys that don't have to worry about hauling their own horses lol)cdncowgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09055181472294995601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550515326326288148.post-85475247254653095192012-07-19T13:02:07.453-06:002012-07-19T13:02:07.453-06:00Go Moon go! hope it all works out great.Go Moon go! hope it all works out great.Shirleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15454110560303310751noreply@blogger.com
